God, it makes it not much more than three times the price of using
a car.

But you don't have to shell out several thousand for a car, money for
road tax, some for insurance, and more for maintenance of the car.

And I haven't.


But if you already own a car (like wot most families do) then those are sunk
costs and irrelevant to the decision.


But I don't and the costs *would* be relevant.
Several thousand pounds of releavance I'd guess.

And, if you buy cars that are three years old or over, even on a fully
costed basis running a car will only be about 20p a mile, so the car still
works out much cheaper for that particular journey.

You've really lost it this time haven't you in your blinkered assertion that
everyone needs to follow *your* mobility patterns.

Some people have moved on you know.
